2011 Weighted Pull-up Competition by extremepullups.com

[tinywrist]

If I added the weight i lost to my pullup I would be at 222% ........stupid bicep.

Dont worry man, you will get there.

[E_P_C]

Ok, but that means if extremist won his weight class he forfeits his first place spot and second place wins right? Hmmmm.... And 222 is pretty nasty.lol hope ur bicep gets better man. Don't call him stupid it might hurt his feelings. Thanks guys.

yes correct

[Hola Bola]

strong lack of participation in this contest

:/

I'll get a vid soon.

Wish I had trained for max weight for pullups from time to time. It's a challenging measure of pulling strength.

Instead my focus has been hypertrophy in lat development. Using moderately weighted pullups in a decent time over tension rep range.

But I may start an aggressive program in the near future and go for it.

Awesome thread.

This isnt my entry, just wanted some feedback on technique. I am comfortable doing a rep with 25kg added, but I tried here with 30kg and had to use my legs a bit. Just wanted to know if this is allowed.

Form check w/ 105lbs... obviously I need to find a bar that is straight all the way across...

form looks good, if you can run some masking tape across the middle and are able to break it off with your chin I think he will give it to you.

Okay cool, thanks. I'll just use a straight bar... its not a big deal.

Looks like you'll move into first in the 200+ category. Looking at the form of the #1 person I think I can do 100 lbs or so putting me at 2nd. I'll probably submit last minute unless there are some good entries already.

[IsaacEK]

I freaking suck at wide grip pull ups. Any advice on getting more reps/weight?

I can do 8 x BW. 6 x 15lbs.

form question, did a pull here

http://tinypic.com/r/2ymhyld/5

this good to go? the thing is i didnt watch it till i got home, and noticed that the angle of the camera being below me made it look like i might not have gone high enough, i put a bungee across the bar cause thats what someone said to do couple posts above and touched my chin on top of it. i workout late (this was at 3am) so i didnt have anyone to film so i just had to prop it on a bench

if this is good let me know so i can post whole video with weigh ins and what not , otherwise ill have to refilm before i leave the country in 2 days and i wasnt planning on going to a gym before i leave cause i gotta lot to do to get ready

there are alot of things wrong. No dead hang, from the back, and it doesnt look like from that angle that your chin is high enough

you can do more than that

for future reference make sure your feet arent touching the ground when you start, but since you did 2 reps this is obviously good and below your actual max

yeah, I wanted to ease into it because of my shoulder, and I did the second rep because of what you said about my feet. I wasn't planning on it

[OminousD27]

**** gotta get a video up. Gotta get a camera.
